Why YSK: I’ve seen several commenters asking if there were specific bots such as RemindMe
However, there are so many bots already on mastodon that will federate with us! Check out botsin.space, a masto-instance specifically made for hosting bots
Just tag @remindme@mstdn.social and say the time after (I recommend you not do it on this post unless you have an actual reason though as it could spam their servers)
Now all we need is a way to use the bots without clogging the comment section with bot commands.
Common sense and decency would suggest doing them as child comments so that the whole thread of them can be easily collapsed.
Only a jackass would do a bot command as a top comment.
This is insanely cool… I don’t know why it never occurred to me that bots on other platforms could work here due to federation, but it makes so much sense. Thanks for sharing!

How to find the available bots and their instructions on the botsin.space?
@remindme@mstdn.social in 3 years
@Jeom @lemonadebunny (dev here) we don’t currently support setting reminders that last for years
Good dev.
A bit pessimistic though.
